President shouldn’t walk away from problems

EDITOR: The Republican-held Congress has pledged to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. The Republicans have been unsuccessful in their attempts to repeal this program for seven years but are still unable to come up with a plan to replace Obamacare.

President Trump campaigned on a promise that he would repeal and replace Obamacare but he hasn’t come up with his own version of the replacement plan, mainly because he doesn’t have one. He endorsed the recent Republican Trumpcare plan as a great plan but it failed to even get voted on. Trump blamed the plan’s failure on not getting even one Democratic vote but he failed to mention that he could not even muster up enough support from his own party to pass the program.

Obamacare is not perfect but it worked for myself and my wife; we saved $6,000 per year while being on the plan.

Every president comes into office with problems to be solved. If Obamacare is considered a problem, fix it Mr. Trump. Instead, after Trumpcare was defeated the president has decided to walk away and let the plan destroy itself (so he claims).

When President Obama took office, our great nation was in the midst of the financial/mortgage crisis. He did the job and got the issue solved. He did not just walk away from the problem.

If you voted for Mr. Trump tell him to live up to his promises. Or were those not promises but instead just campaign rhetoric?
